Let's not sweat the small stuff, ok?
I missed the fake tree controversy - damn! I must have fallen asleep at the forum wheel. 
Now don't put down the entire forum because of one person's post, ok? You don't want to bring down morale and interest here, do you? 
Just say you don't agree and move on. If there is an ongoing continuing negative trend to someone's posts this will become evident with time and then something should be done about it. But let's be "Christian" for now and give each other the benefit of the doubt and say, "Well, maybe he/she had a bad day and his/her attitude was less than kind today but we'll see how it is in the next few weeks" and let it go at that. 
So get off the flame board and back on the regular board. Go look at the page of Rose Parade Float pictures I made, ok?
